CHAPEL HOUSEKEEPER FEATURED IN DOCUMENTARY

“A single conversation with a wise man is better than ten years of study.” –Chinese Proverb Chapel housekeeper Oscar Dantzler is featured in a doc- umentary entitled “The Philosopher Kings” by director Patrick Shen and producer Greg Bennick. “The Philosopher Kings is a documentary fi lm about the kind of wisdom that gets you through the day - the wisdom that comes from surviving hard times, lost loves, shattered dreams, and bad choices. To shed light on this matter, The Philosopher Kings goes deep into our na- tion's most well-respected and prestigious universities to seek wisdom from the people who see it all and have been through it all - the janitorial staff. Set against the backdrop of young people yearning for knowledge to carry them through their lives, the fi lm explores the wisdom that only living life can bring.” –Synopsis from movie website You can watch clips from the movie that include Oscar at the Chapel website, under Oscar’s staff listing.

I was the president of the Duke Tourguides in my senior year, and one of my favorite moments on each one of my tours was watch- ing the expressions on visitor's faces when I f irst brought them into the Chapel. As they receded from the "typical" college sights and sounds around the Chapel (students running to and from class, throwing a frisbee on the grass, or perhaps staging a small protest) and entered the solemn space of the Chapel, I could see the looks on their faces as they thought, ‘This is on a college campus?’ A def- “erential hush always overcame the tour group as I led them down the center aisle. Then I'd ask them to turn around and admire the towering organ pipes and I'd watch the jaws drop all around me. It was like watching Dorothy f irst admire the Land of Oz. These visi- tors knew they weren't in Kansas anymore. But as meaningful as these group moments in the Chapel were for me, the solitary moments were even more memorable. From time to time as an undergrad, I'd ride the small elevator to the top of the tower and spend 10 minutes admiring the campus and ref lecting on how special a place Duke was. Nowhere else on campus can one get the bird's-eye view of the campus that's virtually required for a proper pondering of the f leeting nature of one's college existence. How I wish that I could convey to every current Duke student that they too should take quiet moments atop the Chapel to take a much- needed breath of the clearer air up there. –Paul S. Teller T’93 View of the Chapel from the tower.

One of my roommates at Duke was a pre-min student, and both he and I had the privilege of serving as ushers in the Duke Chapel on ”most Sunday mornings. Often times we were in front of those huge, beautiful open doors handing out bulletins and greeting people as they entered the Chapel. Also, I was an Engineering Student and as such walked past the Duke Chapel down the then-wooded path to the Engineering Building and back several times a day. For me, those are some of my most memo- “rable experiences of enjoying the beautiful Chapel dedicated to the God whom we love and serve. "To God be the glory, great things He Hath Done." I am thankful that James B. Duke had the foresight , love of , and com- mitment to God and "to such an edif ice" that "would be bound to Sunday morning usher have a profound inf luence on the spiritual life of the young men and hands out bulletins. women who come here."

DIRECTORSHIP ENDOWMENT REACHES $1 MILLION GOAL

This March, the Endowment for the Directorship of Chapel Music reached its $1 million goal, thanks to gifts from the Friends of Duke Chapel. Chapel music excellence is nurtured and ensured by gifts to the Endowment for the Directorship of Chapel Music. The Duke Chapel Choir, under the direction of Dr. Rodney Wynkoop, refl ects a deeply rooted tradition of powerful, inspiring sacred music. That tradition was begun by J. Foster “Bishop” Barnes, and continued by Paul Young and J. Benjamin Smith. Cha- pel Choir performances give solace to the bereaved, hope to those in crisis, inspiration to those who are searching, and peace to all. Each performance refl ects an attention to detail and commitment to artistic integrity.
